I think I was expecting it to be a normal forum layout but faster. I must admit, it didn't feel faster. The fade feels like a cop out on speed and acting as a mask.

Also when going onto the forum, I was clicking links but nothing was happening? Then I would click the home button and the last button I had clicked would then activate, like it was a click behind?

The home layout reminds me of hootsuite, I find the layout too cluttered. I'd imagine you would get used to it and you would know where to look eventually but I must admit it wasn't very intuitive.

The plus points are that I do think the world needs an overhaul on forum software, it's tired and hasn't changed much in 15 years. I don't think this has been done in vain.

The feature set looks good I just don't think you need the fading transitions and so much information all over the place. It needs simplifying; in my opinion.

That's weird seems to be responsive enough for me it's not extremely faster then anything else however it's not slow either.

Compared to some forums the would be a very big improvement in loading speed.

As far as the layout is concerned it's not intuitive i haven't seen anything similar so it takes a little getting used to however that doesn't mean it's bad.

Edit: I guess it's getting slightly slower now with the HN effect however I only noticed it going back to the home page.
